Mammal list #54 in our perpetual series and bat list #13: Mormoopidae, or the ghost-faced and mustached bats. This is the last little list of little bats- after this, it's just the giant capstone list. Eleven bats, all 2-3 inches long, eating bugs around the tropics of the Americas. They do have the funnest family name to say, though- try it out yourself! As always, this list reflects formatting discussions from prior lists as well as the scientific consensus on the family. Thanks for reviewing! --PresN 19:20, 15 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- Support - I couldn't find anything. Awesome work once again PresN! -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 09:20, 16 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]- Literally the only thing I could find is that, after having read this article, I still don't know how to pronounce "mormoopids" properly. I can come up with 5 different ways to say it, but would perhaps including an IPA transcription help? --MikeVitale 16:47, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- @MikeVitale: I don't actually know the correct latin way myself; I just like to say mor-moop-ids. --PresN 18:23, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
- OED says it's "mor-moh-OP-id" or "mor-moh-AH-puhd" depending on if you're British or USian. (No word on what the pronunciation is if you speak Canadian English. :) ) https://www.oed.com/dictionary/mormoopid_n?tl=true. --MikeVitale 19:01, 19 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]- "The family Mormoopidae consists of eleven species in two genera: Mormoops and Pteronotus." needs an inline citation.
- It's a WP:CALC summary of the below tables
- Same with "No mormoopids have population estimates, though the Paraguana moustached bat is categorized as an endangered species."
- It's a WP:CALC summary of the below tables
- Where are the sources for the second and third columns?
- The IUCN ref for the species ("Ranges are based on the IUCN Red List for that species unless otherwise noted."), though it doesn't actually say that the author citations are too, does it? Now added to that sentence.
- If the sources cover everything in the row they should be moved to their own column.
- After 54 lists, it seems that most people are fine with it where it is given the "Conventions" bit.
- I can't fully tell by looking at the source code, but do the tables have captions?
- Yep, the e.g. "Genus Mormoops – Leach, 1821 – two species" is the caption element
- Same for row and column scopes and alt text for images.
- Yep, the template(s) set the scopes and alt text
- Are more detailed dates than just the year available for sources?
- There are not, though journal citations are typically just the year anyway.
- Ping when done. History6042😊 (Contact me) 00:23, 25 April 2025 (UTC)[reply]
